Longing For My Rejected Luna

Chapter 85

*****Erika's POV*****

"That maid of yours?" Kat was surprised. Even though Paula was silent, I could see her shock too. Melisse was wide-eyed with shock and was about to flee the scene when two of my guards caught up with her.

Anger boiled and spewed. I walked to where she was being held, the back of my hand went across her cheek harshly. "How dare you?!" I landed another one on the other cheek. "How dare you, Melisse?!"

I was about to pounce on her but Kat and Paula held me back. This stupid girl! To think that I had liked her, she had deceived me with her phony innocence. The laugh she would have had behind my back, how stupid I was. How easily I had liked her and she had taken advantage.

"What's wrong?" Paula asked me.

Instead of replying, I faced the guards. "Tie her and take to her to the meeting room, make sure she's on her knees and watch her so she doesn't escape."

"Okay, Alpha." They bowed and took her away.

I went into the room, removed my blood-sodden dress and walked into the bathroom. Thirty minutes later, Paula and Kat too were done taking their baths. I walked out of my room with them following behind. They had been trying to ask me questions but I was too shaken with anger and disbelief to actually say anything.

They understood my mood and left me while still ensuring their support and comfort when and if needed. I went into the meeting and saw her.

The guards were dutifully by her side while she remained kneeling on the floor with her hands tied to the back. The guards bowed as soon as they saw me. "Alpha."

"Good job, guys." I commended them.

"Thank you Alpha."

I took my position on the Alpha's seat, Paula and Kat took the other seat beside me, flanking my both sides. I stared spitefully at her for a while, she was crying. "Alpha please, I've not done anything wrong."

"What I hate is lying. Don't lie to me." I warned her.
